I get there ain't no such thing as a free lunch, but all the same, I get how some people do feel cheated that the available storage is nothing like what's given as the storage for the device.
At least when I unwrapped a shiny new 64G PlayBook, a few days back, the available storage space for apps and data, only showed a modest overhead, and even now with all the apps installed that I want (albeit I haven't yet loaded any pictures, music, or video) is still 52.2G. wikipedia says that a 64G Surface Pro will only have around 29G of usable storage space - so it's to be hoped that big price tag, plus all the usable storage space gobbled up by OS and overhead, is worth it in terms of bang-for-buck.
